Troubled

A majority of children go through mood swings and behavior changes as they develop; it is normal to experience troubled symptoms on occasion. However, it is when the symptoms occur over an extended period of time that is a cause for concern. Teenagers are seeking to become individuals from their families and in doing so they try to emulate their role models. Our goal is to help identify risk factors, patterns of behavior and enable discernment between appropriate learning “curves” versus potential risk behaviors. We hope to create an environment of awareness that supports healthy choices and identifies unhealthy patterns that might be emerging.
